Letter from a jilted lover

My colleague pointed me to a letter a friend of his wrote to American Airlines, “breaking up” with them.

Dear American Airlines,

I don’t think we should see each other any more.

I know that’s hard to hear. But you’re not the same airline I met a few years ago. You’ve changed. And not for the better. Sure, you say you love me… that you’ll take care of me… that I am “Elite” in your eyes… but those words just seem empty now. I need you to show me that your love is genuine.

There’s more. Lots more. And it’s brilliant. Check it out.

That's great! It sounds like a funny version of what I was saying about Air Canada...

Airlines are all really starting to suck. Flying in general is starting to suck. My threshold for what's worth driving rather than flying has gone up to, like, 7 or 8 hours.
Yeah, I can see that.

Unfortunately that doesn't make much of a difference if you live where I live. In 7 or 8 hours you're still only at the U.S. border...or about 2/3 of the way to Vancouver...or somewhere in the wilds of Saskatchewan...
